Little Alton
Lecture and Dark Rooms. Recent picture taken by Sue Arnold (Doug Manning's daughter)
Now called Sanderlings

Keilaw
Now just No 5 on the gate. Porch and new windows added
Croindene
Used for Indoor leisure activities and acquired between July and November 1944.Veranda along the front filled in and most of the
wood on the front covered up. Recent development on what used to be the garden.
Little Danes Court
No old picture and now called Little Danes.
Dining rooms and galley
Now called The Wych
No mention of the name in any memoirs but current owners say that it was used by the Navy and had a flag pole
Was called Admiralty ? before the present owner bought the house
Greatly altered front of the house but the roofline is the same. Next to Breoc and across the road from Croindene.
No evidence of it being used but the "Admiralty" bit might mean that it was.
The Strand
Used by the School Until burnt out on the 22 May 1944.
Now replaced by a new house on the same site with very high hedges
